End of February I bought a G75VX, worked fine for about 3 months then it started to freeze up randomly, although it seemed.
The laptop freezes up completely with a buzzing sound, only option is a hard reset by keeping the on/off switch pushed in.
It looks like it happens more often when playing a video, online or offline makes no difference. sometimes after 4 minutes sometimes after hours. I started to think this was a flash problem, but i've tried everything related to that :complete removal, reinstallment, no hardware acceleration etc. but nothing seems to work. I also thought it had to do with the browser, so I tried several one's, still same problem. tried several video players vlc, windowsplayer, asus dvd etc. still same problems occur.
I haven't had a freeze up while gaming though. but i did get one during just browsing or even while updating windows.
I tried updating all drivers to the latest versions but this has no effect so far.
I did a complete clean install of windows 8 and updated all drivers once again but still the problem kept returning.
so I figured it was a hardware problem, went back to asus they changed the motherboard and video card and keyboard (i also had a problem with the "L") it returned and guess what? I happened again while i was downloading the last update for windows 8 ???
so reset and it did install that one but meant the problem was still there.then I updated all the drivers again, still no result.
This does make me think it's not a hardware problem or is it? what can it be?
At the same time I also have another problem, the wifi keeps loosing connection, it puts it on limited or disconnects totally.
the thing is i have no such problems with other devices and laptops on the same network so what is up with that.
Does anyone have the same problems? or does anyone know of any solution to both these very annoying problems?
